Service is great.
But they have no happy hour (even when there is no live music), and the drinks are expensive.
12 dollars for a cocktail or glass of wine ?
We ordered a glass of negroni cocktail : bitter and very sweet at the same time (I hated it, my hubby loved it) and a glass of chassagne Montrachet (mostly Chardonnay) which was ok but still a bit acid (not common for a burgundy wine) and not long-lasting (maybe too cold as well?).
Very disappointing. I liked it when it opened, but I doubt I'll ever come back.
Three dishes that will win you over: Ding's Crispy Chicken Sandwich, Honor Burger, side of Hand-Cut French Fries.
The Honor Bar is the epitome of upscale casual dining. The environment is warm & inviting, drinks are old-fashioned & classy, service is sweet & friendly and the food is delicious & ohhhh-so-comforting. The menu is a modern take on classic American cuisine.
Their Hand-Cut French Fries ($3) are a must order. Some have a control item that is ordered to compare businesses. Mine is fries for classic American restaurants and this is a winner. Delivered fresh, warm and crispy, these hand-cut Kennebec potatoes are beautifully wrapped in paper and served with ketchup and aioli. Once you start, you can't stop. Keep these to yourself or be generous and share with others. Heck, just order two for the table.
I'm always torn between ordering the Ding's Crispy Chicken Sandwich ($12) and the Honor Burger ($12). It's one of those things when you think you know which one you want, but you quickly change it to the other once it's your turn to order. I, on the other hand quickly draft a pro & con list of each (in my head) and decide. Solution: come with a good friend, order both and SHARE. The chicken sandwich is truly a crispy chicken sandwich fully decked with premium ingredients--sliced tomato, swiss cheese and dressed kale. It's certainly a beauty. The Honor Burger is equally delicious and packed thick--ground chuck, cheddar & tomato, topped with coleslaw. I had to unhinge my jaw to eat this tall guy. Always satisfied.
The Honor Bar is a top choice for a catch-up with old friends, a casual (but certainly to impress) date or grabbing drinks with coworkers. However, it's not for large groups or birthday parties. There's just no room for that. No reservations. No dessert menu. Come early and leave happy.
Kale salad is delicious! Â prices are very fair, especially for the address/area. Â
my wife and I are usually not the type to order "crispy chicken sandwich" but I'm here to tell you, it was really good! Â I know it doesn't sound like much, and I hate chik-fil-a, but I trusted other yelp reviewers and we really enjoyed it. Â the portion was huge. Â we split it four ways.
the fries were good... it was all good. Â the wife and I had a couple stella artois (on tap) while we enjoyed the comfy corner booth. Â we relaxed so much, one of our three kids fell asleep there in the booth. Â
the service we received was excellent and very professional. Â we never felt rushed (despite the fact my 5 yo son was sleeping through their lunch rush).
